Hyster has added four new model configurations to its ReachStacker range, bringing the total models to 10.
The four new models are:
• RS 45-27 CH - A container handler, designed for first and second row container handling applications with 27 tonne capacity in the second row.
• RS 46-35 IH - An intermodal handler, specifically designed for handling containers and swap-bodies, with 35 tonnes in the second row.
• RS 46-28/44S CH - Additional capacity with 38 tonnes in the second container row or, when fitted with a Hyster-designed stabiliser, 44 tonnes in the second row and a minimum of 30 tonnes in the third container row.
• RS 46-35/40S IH - An intermodal handler with 35 tonnes capacity in the second container row or, when fitted with Hyster’s specially designed front stabiliser, 40 tonnes in the second container row or a minimum of 27 tonnes in the third row and 32-36 tonnes in the second rail handling row at 5m to 6m load centre.
Kenya Port Authority was one of Hyster’s first customers to buy the new RS 45-27 CH model for use in high-capacity second row stacking.
The Port of Tyne, UK, has ordered a 38/44S container handling model with stabiliser. The model has the stability to load or unload onto railway or road vehicles and perform general container handling tasks.
Hyster’s RS series ReachStacker received the European engineering award in 2000 for the "excellence of its ergonomic design and operator controls".
